Android Question Show route button on google maps

[Gktech]

I'm using Google Maps ( https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/google-maps.63930/ )
I would like to know if it is possible to display the google route button without having to click on the marker
of the map?

Not sure that I understand. What do you mean with 'route button'? How is it related to a marker?

If you click on a marker then buttons appear on the Google Map (bottom right). Clicking on this button opens the Native GoogleMaps app to navigate to the Location.

What did you mean, wanted to know if it's possible to load by default without having to click?

You can send the intent yourself. For example:

Sub MapFragment1_Click (Point As LatLng)
   Dim in As Intent
   in.Initialize(in.ACTION_VIEW, $"google.navigation:q=${Point.Latitude},${Point.Longitude}"$)
   in.SetPackage("com.google.android.apps.maps") 'this method is only available in v8.8+. Example of calling it with JavaObject: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/inline-java-question.97866/#post-616946
   StartActivity(in)
End Sub
